Hello! My name is Olivia Jackovin. I am 22 (23 on the 19th) years old, and recently graduated from Iowa State University with a psychology bachelors degree. I have always loved working with children, and have extensive experience in multiple settings. I have been a babysitter for over 11 years, nannied for multiple families, worked in daycares, and currently work as a behavioral therapist for children with developmental disabilities. I have experience with ages 1-13. I can do basic household tasks like cooking and cleaning, have reliable transportation for myself and children, and love to create fun and enriching activities for children! I am located in Ames, but am willing to commute around 20 minutes to surrounding areas!

My name is Rylee and I have been babysitting all ages of children since I was about 12 years old. I am majoring in architecture at Iowa State. I love children and babies because they have the most unique perspectives on life. I like fostering a safe place for kids to develop and learn. I have babysat babies from newborn to toddler age, for full day and night periods. I regularly watch two children at once (a toddler and seven year old) and have experience watching up to six elementary-aged kids at once. I have led my own summer art class for elementary-aged students and taught classes at my local art center. I also have experience tutoring third and fourth graders. I am open to tutoring and helping with homework if the kids need it. I was a lifeguard at a country club for two years. I was trained and certified in first aid and CPR, but I did not renew the certification. I am good at learning schedules and can adapt to any style of the care the parents wish. I think babysitting is one of the most rewarding jobs because even when the kids are having a bad day, you get to be a support for them. I think it is important to teach children emotional intelligence and help them navigate big feelings. In my experience, babysitting is not always easy, but always gratifying.

I love working with kids and helping them learn. I am a lifeguard and camp counselor during the summers working with kids ages 6-16. I am lifeguard, CPR, and have some basic first aid training.

As a senior in elementary and special education I have had my fair share of experiences working with children. I have had many opportunities to care for and help child succeed in multiple settings. I have nannied for six years and would love to continue working with children as much as I can.

Hi families! I am Rebekah. I am from Iowa. I am moving to Florida the beginning of October. I am looking for a start date around the middle of October. I am moving to Florida for a new experience. I just graduated The University of Northern Iowa with a bachelors in Human services. I am also CRP/First Aid certified. I have also been starting to take classes on a website called Alison. This is a website that I can learn more about children and the best way to help them thrive and grow. As for my experience. I have 10 years of babysitting experience and three years professional nannying. The family I work for now have two kids. They were 4 and 8 months when I started. They will be 6 and 2. 5 when I move. I have worked for this family for almost 2 years. Before that I worked for a family with one child. She was 5 months when I started and 1. 5 years when they moved away. I look forward to hearing from you!

I have 10 years of experience babysitting, 5 of those years I was in facilities. I am CPR and First Aid certified, as well as multiple other classes about childcare. I am energetic and always ready for something new!

Hi! I’m Kinsey, an Elementary Education major at Iowa State University and future teacher 😊 I have experience working with children in classrooms, camps, substitute teaching, and as a lead teacher in an infant room, so I’m very comfortable caring for all ages and managing multiple children while keeping routines calm and structured but fun. I love planning activities beyond screens such as crafts, outdoor play, reading time, learning games, and local outings. I’m dependable, organized, and patient. I balance fun and expectations so kids feel comfortable while still listening and staying safe. I’m available full time May through August and looking for a consistent summer position. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping, meal prep, transportation, and keeping kids engaged during the day while parents work. Families often like having an education major because I can support reading, writing, and learning throughout the summer so kids stay active and confident going into the next school year. I’d love to connect and see if we’re a good fit for your family!

I am about to graduate high school this May, and I plan to move to Cedar Rapids! I also work part-time at Fareway after school and on weekends. I am the youngest of my siblings but I am very good with kids! I have been babysitting since I was twelve years old and have worked with newborns up to children who are 12+. I also have an older brother who has autism, who has also taught me a lot about patience and understanding. I also have a strong passion for Jesus and he plays a big role in my life! While attending church, I have served in the nursery with little kids as well. Outside of work and school, I love playing guitar, readings books, baking, and enjoy spending time outside. Another thing I enjoy is teaching others and helping them grow and learn.
